I sketched this at Boule & Berså, an outdoor bar close to Danvikstull bridge. The bridge is raised once an hour during the summer months at 38 minutes past the hour to allow sailing boats to pass though Stockholm. It’s very enjoyable to just sit down and have a beer and sketch especially on a Friday afternoon after work. My wife joined me later and so the sketchbook was put away and I finished it later that Sunday.

Welcome!

My name is David Meldrum, I live in Stockholm, Sweden. I have just given up my day job and became a full-time artist.

It was February 2012 when I painted my first watercolour and found it fascinating. The year before that I had started drawing again 30 years after leaving art college back in 1981. I am hopelessly addicted to art now and spend everyday trying to improve my skills. I am very curious to know how good I can become and what I can achieve.
